WWE News: Non-Spoiler Preview For Tonight’s NXT & 205 Live (12/19/18)
A non-spoiler look at what’s happening tonight on NXT & 205 Live!
RAW and SmackDown Live are now in the rear-view mirror for the WWE Universe and before we hit the holidays next week here in the United States, tonight brings more action with NXT and 205 Live.
Although tonight’s episode of WWE NXT was previously recorded at Full Sail University in Orlando, Florida, we at The Chairshot realize not everyone likes a spoiler. With that in mind, here’s a non-spoiler preview of what’s happening on NXT, which airs at 8PM EST on the WWE Network:
- Aleister Black & Johnny Gargano look to settle their issues inside the confines of a Steel Cage Match
- Io Shirai & Dakota Kai seek retribution when they meet Marina Shafir & Jessamyn Duke
- Get ready to feast your eyes on Dominik Dijakovic
- Before they head off to the main roster, Heavy Machinery is in tag team action
Preceding NXT will be the high-flying action of the Cruiserweights at 7PM for 205 Live. While it was taped last night prior to SmackDown Live, here’s a non-spoiler preview for tonight’s episode of the purple brand:
- The Brian Kendrick goes for revenge alongside Akira Tozawa when they face Jack Gallagher & Drew Gulak in a Street Fight
- ‘The Scottish Supernova’ Noam Dar goes one-on-one with Hideo Itami
Uhhhhh….. @WWEDozovic we don’t know which brand #HeavyMachinery is coming to yet.@WWE #SmackDown #Raw https://t.co/WB5rXaCbQC

TNA Impact on AMC Drops to 175,000 Viewers, 0.03 18-49 Rating Amid Heavy Sports Competition
TNA Thursday Night Impact averaged 175,000 viewers on AMC last week, a 17.5% decline from the previous week’s 212,000 and the lowest audience since January 22. The show posted a 0.03 rating in the key 18-49 demo, down 25% and matching its lowest demo figure on AMC since the move.
The drop coincided with stiff competition — Impact ran opposite the NFL Draft (simulcast on ESPN, ABC and the NFL Network) as well as NHL and NBA playoff coverage, leaving the program tied for 70th on the primetime cable charts. Versus the prior 10-week average (0.04 rating and 240,300 viewers), last week’s show fell 25% in the demo and 27.2% in overall viewers.

Nick Hogan Open to Pursuing In-Ring Career After Viewing Hulk Hogan: Real American
Nick Hogan told the Bonus Edition of the 83 Weeks podcast that after watching the final version of Hulk Hogan: Real American he’s more open than ever to stepping into the ring if the opportunity presents itself. Hogan said he’s been knocking off ring rust, is in good shape and “would absolutely welcome” the chance to pursue an in‑ring career, and noted the docuseries — which premiered on Netflix on April 22, 2026 — helped clarify his father’s legacy.
He also praised the series for pulling back the curtain on the many facets of Hulk Hogan, from character work to charitable efforts, saying it showed how dynamic a person his father is. Nick added that the long-discussed Chris Hemsworth biopic from 2019 remains a possibility despite delays, as the documentary continues to renew interest in Hogan’s story.
